Since I replaced the bushings in my 73 side shifter I cannot shift into 4th or 5th. What did I do wrong?

Your shifter bar is probably just indexed incorrectly. If you watch the action at the shift console on the transmission while someone moves the shifter, you should be able to see which way it needs to be adjusted. There are splines in the shifter that allow you to adjust this easily by simply loosening a clamp.

Thanks for the advice! We'll give it a try.
